Increase frequency of quarantine reports

All,
At present, my users are receiving their quarantine reports at around 4am everyday. Is there a way to add an additional report that is sent out around 2pm so that they can release mails that may be being held back from the morning?

Anyone able to assist with this? I've taken a look in Webmin and can't locate the job but can see the job in cron.daily:
Code: Select all
[root@mail cron.daily]# cat mailwatch
#!/bin/bash
/usr/local/bin/mailwatch/tools/Cron_jobs/db_clean.php >> /dev/null 2>&1
/usr/local/bin/mailwatch/tools/Cron_jobs/quarantine_maint.php --clean >> /dev/null 2>&1
/usr/local/bin/mailwatch/tools/Cron_jobs/quarantine_report.php >> /dev/null 2>&1
However, I'm not able to determine how to change the time at which it runs! (it's currently running at around 03:55 every day)
Any pointers?

In my case, I wish the quarantine report to be sent every 4 hours,
I use crontab
---------------------
2 1,5,9,13,17,21 * * * /usr/local/bin/mailwatch/tools/Cron_jobs/quarantine_report.php >> /dev/null 2>&1
--------------------
And of course, every content of the quarantine report shows only this 4 hours,
Modify /usr/local/bin/mailwatch/tools/Cron_jobs/quarantine_report.php
change " a.date >= DATE_SUB(CURRENT_DATE(), INTERVAL " . QUARANTINE_REPORT_DAYS . " DAY)"; "
to " a.timestamp >= DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 4 HOUR)"; "
remove this line "/usr/local/bin/mailwatch/tools/Cron_jobs/quarantine_report.php >> /dev/null 2>&1" in /etc/cron.daily/mailwatch,
For your reference

That worked well, thank you. I've changed my reports to only be sent once a day at 9am.
I couldn't work out how to change the text in the report that says:
Code: Select all
In the last 7 day(s) you have received 1 e-mails that have been quarantined and are listed below. All messages in the quarantine are automatically deleted 60 days after the date that they were received.
I would like it to say 1 day but couldn't work out how to do that (without doing it manually!).
